 SPRING 2023 TKAA DISTINGUISHED ALUMNI
DAVE MIKE BREMER

                                               ........................................................................

Attention fellow Alumni ... One of the goals of the Thornapple Kellogg Alumni Association is to recognize graduates that have made a difference in the lives of others and have gone above and beyond in their chosen fields. They have earned significant distinctions and given back to their community and this school. (They do not need to currently live in the local area.)
Do you know someone that fits this bill? Deserves recognition?
If you know of someone, please nominate them.
Please go to the Distinguished Alumni tab to see the rceipients to date.
 
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING YOUR TKAA
